@third rail posted:I use a standard 6-32 round or flat head screw and nut to attach die cast trucks to cars after pulling the plastic ones off. Trim the screw to length with a bolt cutter, use a drop of red or blue thread locker and tighten just enough to get some swivel play in truck.
Thank you sir, this is exactly what I needed. I never thought about shortening the screw to fit. I am still perplexed on why Lionel does not include hardware with their die cast truck kits.
